Bad News, Good News


The bad news is that
I create what I see in others.

If I'm lazy, I'll see laziness.
If I'm dangerous, I'll see danger.
If I'm greedy, I'll see greed.

The good news is that
I create what I see in others.

If I'm patient, I'll see patience.
If I'm kind, I'll see kindness.
If I'm hopeful, I'll see hope.

The Public

What happens when they
Walk into a darkened room.
Flip a switch, and no
Lights come on, no stocks rise, no
Businesses hire new workers?

They will get in line
For food stamps, for medical
Care, for church sermons
About aborting children
Of illegal immigrants.

They need their sugar,
Their energy drinks, their bank
Accounts to keep them
The richest nation on earth,
Polling how mood swings switch sides.
